Comments on: Hypocrite Is Too Kind. Video Of Glenn Beck Supporting The Bailout http://www.oliverwillis.com/2009/09/21/hypocrite-is-too-kind-video-of-glenn-beck-supporting-the-bailout/ Like Kryptonite To Stupid Sat, 11 Feb 2012 06:30:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 By: Brian http://www.oliverwillis.com/2009/09/21/hypocrite-is-too-kind-video-of-glenn-beck-supporting-the-bailout/#comment-181040 Brian Sat, 26 Sep 2009 18:51:03 +0000 http://www.oliverwillis.com/?p=16773#comment-181040 The Daily Show is one of the best at using old footage of FOX News pundits and comparing it to what they are saying now that a Democrat is in the White House. One of the funniest had to be, "Fox News, the new liberals." It is almost laughable when Hannity, O'Reilly, etc. were calling those who protested Bush over the war as "loons", yet the current protestors are just "honest, hard working, Americans." If FOX news wants to be a mouthpiece for the right, that is fine, but don't give me this "Fair and Balanced, or We Report, You Decide", mantra.

Glenn Beck recently has stated we have the best health care system in the world, and have no need for reform. Yet, when he had his own surgery a few years ago, he was recorded as saying our health care system is in need of sweeping changes, and that they don't care about the common man.

This is something I would bring to the attention of every diplomat, politician and corporate leader: the future, eventually, will find you out. The future, wielding unimaginable tools of transparency, will have its way with you. In the end, you will be seen to have done that which you did." --William Gibson, <i>Passing Oceania</i> “In the age of the leak and the blog, of evidence extraction and link discovery, truths will either out or be outed, later if not sooner.

He is against any federal money being taken away from the American people and dispensed by the evil, muslim, socialist, marxist, maoist, king Barack Hussein Obama. Beck's policy rotates with whomever is in the oval office (which is true for all of us, to a degree, but most of us don't have the mental flexibility to contort to such an extreme).
